Luxury cookie brand Last Crumb is tapping into pop culture and literary nostalgia with the launch of a co-branded, limited-edition cookie box inspired by the new Wuthering Heights film. Designed as a companion to the story’s dark, romantic intensity, the 12-count collection translates the film’s haunting tone into a rich, indulgent dessert experience.
Unlike the brand’s traditional Valentine’s collection, which centers on gifting, the Wuthering Heights box is positioned as an act of self-claiming. The assortment leans into mood, decadence, and bold flavor profiles, offering a non-traditional alternative for consumers seeking elevated treats with emotional depth and dramatic flair.
Priced at $140, the collection features six flavors: Better With S*x (Chocolate Chip), Burning Desire (Chocolate Lava), Crimson Obsession (Red Velvet), Lust & Crumble (Black Forest Cake), Sweet Infatuation (Biscoff Crunch), and Forbidden Fruit (Oatmeal Pear Fig).
The new capsule is available for a limited time from January 23 through February 15.
